This morning I heard Izzy scratching in her hide so I decided to give her a bath. Instead of drinking from a eyedropper like she usually does she took straight to the water in the bath and drank on her own. So when I put her back in the viv I gave here some blueberries. She jumped on them. I...

My first brumation (well not me - my dragon). She is staying in her hide. Last poop was clear of parasites. During lights on she will open her eyes. 1. I have heard her digging in her hide a few times. She is on a hard surface (hodge podge). Should I consider giving her somthing to...

After a vet visit and discussion here http://www.beardeddragon.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=134235 I suspect my beardie is going into her first brumation or semi-brumation. I put a hide in her cage and she is staying in it all day and night. But during the day she is "awake" in there - I...

My vet is a well respected herp vet for our area. One of the few who knows anything about reptiles at all. She says that the way their lab tests for coccidia (centrifugal method) they can only report back if coccidia are present or not-present. If the lap reports back positive for coccidia...

I ordered some Dubia from forum member Little D and he shipped them to me by Canada Post Expidited to my small office. So yesterday the postal lady shows up with the box a little freeked out and asked whats in the box because she had been driving around with them in her car all day and could...

Im wondering what the max number of dubia in a single bin is? I assume at some point having too many in one container becomes unhealthy and unmanagable. I have a 18 gallon sterlite bin with 5 egg crates standing upright.

Is there BBcode setup on this forum to embed youtube videos? I watched this video on how to do this for phpBB forums and it does not seem that hard. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l1G7TJD6Xu0 I think it would be a great feature for members to be able to embed using this method. Maybe its not...

Sorry it’s so long. I know that I am preaching to the choir with this post but I felt like sharing my experience. The forum was so instrumental in solving this problem. Early December when the weather started getting cold my Juvenile beardie, Izzy started to get lethargic. She would hide...

Im wondering if most of you feed roaches to your beardies in separate enclosures like people do with crickets. I know if you leave a cricket in an enclosure overinight it can bite your beardie. Do the roaches bite? Can you leave them in overnight?

I noticed on youtube a couple videos where a guy glued together 2 egg flats so roaches could crawl inside and hide. Is this common practice or was this just one guys idea? Is it necessary?

Anyone know of anywhere I can get bulk water crystals in Canada? I wan't to make my own gel.

On both sides of my dragon I can feel some small lumps under the skin right below where her spikes are, on her belly, just in front of her legs. To me it feels like part of her skeleton but I have read a lot about being able to feel impaction or hard urate and wanted to know if I am feeling...

I had some baby bok choy left over from a meal and offered it to my dragon. I was surprised when I came home that she ate it all. She has not been eating much of anything lately and especially not veg. Then I was disappointed when I looked up on beautiful dragons that I should feed it...

I have had Izzy for 6 months or so now and she has made big improvements in letting me handle her. She will let me pick her up and will sit on my hand but looks for any opportunity to jump and "escape". Honestly I thought this was just berdie behaviour. I have her out 2-3 times a day for a...

FYI I found a vet in Southern Ontario who is really good with reptiles. Thought I would pass it on... Dr. J. Sawyer Millennium City Veterinary Hospital Pickering, ON L1W 1L7 Tel: (905) 420-9555

Can a CHE be used in a dome fixture sitting on a metal screen or do they get too hot?

Izzy has not been herself since the move to her new viv 35 days ago. Things really improved for a bit and I thought she was over the stress but now she has gone “off” again. I am wondering if it’s getting too cold at night now the winter is here (its 14° outside). I checked last night when I...

So in other posts of mine you can read about how my beardie stopped eating a week ago after her relocation to a new viv. Since about Wednesday I have been hand feeding her baby food. She still refuses to eat crickets so I went to the store to look for some worms because when she was healthy...

I moved my Izzy from her 10gal to her new 60 gal viv on Friday night and have been trying to feed her crickets out of the 10gal but she wont eat. She is on a hunger strike and is not to happy with the relocation. I have managed to get her to eat small amounts of cactus pear off the tip of my...
